US condemns Nov 9 bombing in Pakistan, reaffirms commitment to regional security
The United States strongly condemned the November 9 bombing at a railway station in Pakistan's Quetta.
In a controversial statement, former National Security Advisor of Pakistan Mahmud Ali Durrani on Monday claimed Mumbai terror attacks in November 26, 2008 were carried out by a Pakistan-based terror group.
“The 26/11 Mumbai attack carried out by a terror group based in Pakistan is classic trans-border terrorist event,” Durani said on the sidelines of the 19th Asian Conference on Combating Terrorism in New Delhi.
Blaming the Pakistan Government for trying to cover up the gruesome attack, he said, “I made a statement on Pakistan television which the Pakistan Government did not like and I was sacked”.
